Bela

I just remembered a name that I really used to like, but forgot about. It's Bela (pronounced BAY-lah). I like it for a girl, but the only problem is that it is a strictly male name in some cultures (think Hungarian? composer Bela Bartok and American banjoist Bela Fleck). I also think that it might be mispronounced like Bella (which I like, too). I couldn't stand spelling it Bayla or any other alternate spelling. Opinions, please!!!

I'm sure almost everybody would mispronounce it Bella especially because of Twilight... maybe you could use it in a few years. I do like it much better for a girl and I don't think anybody would think it was masquline. Good luck!
